Silicone lubricants are designed to protect equipment & machinery against wear & tear, reduce downtime, prolong service intervals, lower maintenance costs, increase efficiency, and boost the productivity of machine processes. Silicone lubricants are water repellent and hence provide protection from rust. These lubricants perform well in extreme weather condition.
silicone oil is the largest market and is expected to witness an incremental growth of 28.16% during the forecasted period. Silicone oils are used for insulation to various products. They can also be used as heat transfer fluid as they provide thermal stability to systems in which they are being used. These oils provide greater stability and are known for high temperature non-toxic use at low surface tension and high power.
Manufacturing sector is the major end-user of silicone lubricants which accounts for 35.14% of global silicone lubricants market. Lubrication is necessary in manufacturing industry as the machines and components are subjected to high stress as they are under constantly changing loads, vibrations and changing operating conditions.
